AP_EventTransportCtorPtr
 
/**
* Pointer to the constructor function for the transport library. Each TIL
* plugin library must export a function with this signature, named using the
* AP_EVENTTRANSPORT_CTOR_FUNCTION_NAME macro.
*
* Constructs a new instance of the event transport. This function will be
* called by the adapter main program when the adapter starts up. The
* transport should be created in a 'stopped' state, such that it is not
* actively processing data from the external transport. A call to the
* start() function is required to begin processing.
*
* Note that the input parameters (name, properties, timestampConfig) are
* owned by the caller. The IAF framework guarantees that propertes and
* timestampConfig will remain valid until after a subsequent call to
* updateProperties(), so it is safe to hold a pointer to this structure.
* You should, however, copy the name string if you wish to keep it. The
* contents of the output parameter errMsg belongs to the transport.
*
* @param name The name of this transport instance
* @param properties Transport property set derived from the IAF config file
* @param err 'Out' parameter for error code if constructor fails
* @param errMsg 'Out' parameter for error message if constructor fails
* @param timestampConfig Timestamp recording/logging settings
* @return Pointer to a new transport instance or NULL if the constructor
* fails for some reason. In the case of failure, err and errMsg should be
* filled in with an appropriate error code and message describing the
* failure.

* against.
*
* @param version 'Out' parameter for version number of transport library.
* This should be the value of AP_EVENTTRANSPORT_VERSION that was defined
* in EventTransport.h when the transport was built. The IAF will check
* the version number to ensure that it can support all the capabilities
* offered by the transport
* @param capabilities 'Out' parameter for the capabilities of the
* transports provided by this library. Currently no such capabilities
* are defined, so the value of this field will be ignored by the IAF.
* However, all bits of the capabilities value are reserved for future use,
* so current transports should ensure that they set this value to zero.
